To be fair, I have given those instructions to more than one person.
But hopefully not at work, right?

No offense, but I'm kind of glad I was late enough to work today that you were off the road before I got to my bus stop.
Tremble before my powers of destruction!

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Also, I apologize for the level of self-involvement I've been displaying for the past like, YEAR.
I've been remiss in...everything.
Anniversary and a house for Robin! Yay!
Surgery for Mac! Boo! (but yay for him getting better and solving medical issue).
Anniversary for Miracleborns! Yay!
Migraines for ita. Boo!
And lots of other things I haven't properly celebrated or soothed or supported because my head is up my ass.

mac came to the office with me today. The office wanted to see him, he and I needed to learn that a wheelchair on the subway really would be ok, grandma/dad needed a morning free (although grandma chose to do laundry), and he needed some alone time with me.
